I own the bs6 thar hard top diesel automatic, and I would like to point out a few things. 1. In 6th gear, I can cruise at 100kmph at barely over 1500 rpm, roughly around 1600-1700 rpm. 2. In terms of drivability, I don't get any turbo lag whatsoever. Engine pulls strong and clean right from 1200 rpm and a little more pressure on the throttle pushes me back into the seat. Mind you this comes from as low as lesser than 1500 rpm. Overtakes are surprisingly easy and quick. Excellent review by the team, kudos to them , but you cannot get the same amount of performance or ease of driving from a smaller engine with a higher pressure / size turbo. This engine seems to be running at a higher psi of boost leading to the turbo lag. That's why you have to rev the engine higher. But 90% people won't notice these things except for pure enthusiasts. So if you want a Thar but the 4x4 version is a bit out of the budget, buy the 4x2.
very crisp, no bias, pure details. The title does absolute justice to the content. it take much knowledge and experience to understand engine characteristics and you have explained it wonderfully. Great review and thx for bringing this to us.
I saw about 15 videos of Thar 4x2 today as it was launched today and i must say this was the best video as it covered the most aspects compared to other videos and that too comprehensively! Kudos!!
i am going for it, i am driving RWD since 8 years now. i know maximum times we are not going extreme off road. with my Car which has Rear wheel drive with MLD i have been to Sach pass, Kaza and on those roads where other car stucks... i think RWD + MLD is good enough... one should definitely hit this \\\\
Excellent review. This review stands head and shoulders above so many other reviews which I watched today. Your attention to detail and being thorough with all aspects of the vehicle was the highlight. You painstakingly gave complete overview of all aspects including off-road and that too not on random off-road course, but a proper off-road course showing what all this vehicle is actually capable of. I've watched many of your reviews and yours are always the best, cuz you don't just read the spec sheet you show the practicle usage addressing many queries of a potential buyer. Keep up the great work. 👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
@91Wheels After watching tonnes of videos about this car, you are the first one to show us the minute detailing & lags of this car...Appreciate your work...keep up the same to help get a clear picture 👍
Mahindra really really really knows the pulse of true "SUV" enthusiasts !!! So many traditional SUVs they have retained and nurtured till now. Bolero, Thar, Scorpio, XUV ... etc ; have to be made more and more affordable for enthusiasts in the coming days...(they should). Tatas on the other hand should not have discontinued their Safari storme. Nothing can beat, Nothing can really beat old school ladder frame affordable SUVs.. Even after a hundred years from now; I will still love traditional old school ladder frame SUVs...!
Nice and detailed review This thar can handel bad rural roads therefore value for money I'm from remote part of mizoram where roads are very bad especially during monsoon season and would be perfect for my area
Your video changed my overall perspective of the car. I thought she is wearing 3 cylinder engine and was disappointed but since it's 4 cylinder from maeazzo ,I'm almost relieved.
Mahindra could've offered MLD from Bolero Neo for 2WD thar, if not transform into a real off roader like 4x4 variant it will help to get out of tricky situations. Food for thought !
Best combo by Mahindra will be giving 110Ps diesel engine with 4x4. It will have decent power plus 4x4 capabilities as well and would be then 2-3lakhs cheaper than the current 4x4
Bunny sir, while talking about the engine you said, "not to be confused with the engine in Bolero Neo or XUV 3OO." 1.5 diesel in Bolero Neo is a different 3 cylinder unit. But the 1.5 diesel in the XUV 3OO is the same 4 cylinder unit in the Marazzo. In the Marazzo, it develops 121 bhp and 300 nm. In the XUV 3OO it develops 117 bhp and 300 nm - as same as this RWD Thar. So, the Thar's new 1.5 engine is nothing but a XUV 3OO engine, we can say. Overall, it was a nice review as always sir!
the diesel here is tried and tested best in its class torque monster with 117 horses on tap with a less rattling 4cylinders for you.... and that's the BOTTOM-LINE °|||||° 💨💨💨
This video proves no 4x4 required 4x2 with great GC and AT tyres could do 90% of things. Unless we are doing extreme off road which is less than 5% of time and in some tricky situations like mud, snow, so question do we really need 4x4
I currently love and drive a Honda WRV diesel. Have always been a Japanese automotive fan. However, after driving the Thar 2WD, I am seriously considering it to replace my WRV. Only two question marks remain: 1. Will it be comfortable for a family of three comprising me, my wife and my six year old daughter? 2. Will it be as niggle free as a Japanese car? I can wait for the Jimny but I'm really addicted to the diesel torque.
Other car makers ..Lets make an Suv on a Hatch back platform Mahindra - 🤔🤔🤔 Let's make a Hatch back on the Suv platform.. ....I just hope the gave the MLD as the Neo
The Mahindra website states that there is Electronic Brake Locking Differential as standard on the D117 LX. Wanted to confirm if this is true as you have mentioned in the video that it isn't present in RWD models.
Kudos for the review, I just had a question, I thought the 1.5 Diesel RWD has Electronic Brake Locking Differential, could you please confirm? The Thar product catalogue says so..
Superb coverage, Bunny ! Alas ! If only M&M would have an efficient 1.5 petrol on the THAR... Diesel is a no-go in NCR anyways !! But.. great coverage of the RWD 1.5 Diesel. BTW, aren't the Marazzo and XUV3oo using the same 1.5L engine as the Bolero Neo aka TUV ??
Now M&M is the only Car Company in India🇮🇳 to have a lifestyle iconic Car in its portfolio at attractive price. A rear wheel drive is far better than so called front wheel drive SUV. Truly AAM AADMI SUV from M&M
Excellent review touching all the positives and negatives.. In my view the down-graded THAR has spoiled the real image of the THAR.. If the RWD thar is meant for city and highway, then why not arm-rest not provided by mahindra..?
@@91Wheels that's sad. 2wd means it's now an ute. Not some lifestyle vehicle. Practicality is prime here. Should that seating configuration clash with the NCAP rating which Thar enjoys, they could even change this variant's name. But side facing rear row seats are cardinal ‼️
& the turning circle radius? Is the 2wd able to match the Bolero Neo's 5.35M turning circle radius? The 5.9M from the 4wd Thar is hardly able to clear traffic signal U-turns in one go ‼️😅
@Muthu::: the thar never had side facing jump or trooper seats. Don't mistake this with Bolero Rear 7seater jump seats. Pls go and check this at the nearest m & m dealer this is very very capable bet for OT o n diet 👀🤘
